Everton Stadium, Liverpool
The Client
Everton’s new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock is a state-of-the-art, 53,000-seat venue set to open in 2025. Designed by renowned architect Dan Meis and constructed by Laing O’Rourke, the stadium is built using innovative techniques such as off-site manufacturing and 3D modelling.
The project prioritised sustainability and environmental impact reduction while serving as a major regeneration catalyst for the local community. Overlooking the River Mersey, the stadium is designed to offer an electrifying atmosphere and a lasting legacy for the city of Liverpool.
The Requirement
Lindner Prater, one of the UK’s leading specialist building envelope contractors, approached Eurosafe UK to design, supply, and install a comprehensive safe access system for the stadium’s roof areas.
The primary objectives were to facilitate the safe maintenance of the roof surface, gutters, and the extensive Solar PV installation on the South Stand while ensuring long-term protection of the standing seam roof.
The Solutions
To meet these requirements, Eurosafe provided a tailored solution using the Ascent range of walkways, step units, and handrails, combined with MSA Latchways fall protection systems:
Ascent Aluminium Walkways: Installed to provide levelled, slip-resistant access across the standing seam roof, these walkways are fully tested and approved for use on this roof type. They also help protect the roof surface from potential damage caused by regular foot traffic associated with Solar PV maintenance.
Ascent Aluminium Step Units: Deployed in areas where level changes occur, these units ensure safe transitions between different roof sections, maintaining full accessibility for maintenance personnel.
Ascent Handrails: Where fall hazards were present, walkways were fitted with robust handrails to further enhance user safety.
MSA Latchways Constant Force Fall Protection System: In areas with less frequent maintenance access, Bemo-approved Latchways fall protection systems were installed, offering secure attachment points for operatives working at height.
The Outcome
The project was successfully completed on time and within budget, delivering a high-quality, future-proofed safe access system. The integration of Ascent access solutions and MSA Latchways systems ensures that Everton Stadium’s maintenance teams can carry out their work safely and efficiently while preserving the integrity of the roof structure.
This project highlights Eurosafe's expertise in delivering cutting-edge height safety solutions for major construction projects, reinforcing our commitment to safety, quality, and innovation.
